Urea 46% Nitrogen
Fertilizer N46% refers to Urea 46% Nitrogen, one of the most commonly used nitrogen-based fertilizers in agriculture.

Key Details: Urea 46% Nitrogen

  1. Composition: Contains 46% nitrogen in the form of amide, making it highly concentrated.
  2. Appearance: Typically white or slightly off-white granular or prilled solid.
  3. Uses:
    • Promotes plant growth by supplying essential nitrogen.
    • Commonly used for crops like wheat, corn, rice, and other cereals.
  4. Application: Can be applied directly to the soil or dissolved in water for foliar feeding.
  5. Storage: Must be kept dry to prevent clumping and loss of nitrogen through volatilization.
  6. Packaging: Often available in 50 kg bags or bulk shipments for agricultural use.

It’s widely sought after for its efficiency and cost-effectiveness in boosting crop yields.
